Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 10 March 2024

Let’s be frank, beauty standards are weird.

Double eyelids, thigh gaps, canthal tilts (look it up, it’s stupid). You’ve probably heard of a few.

This week you’re going to use your team name to come up with a new and preferably ridiculous beauty standard.

Her pinky finger is way too long

Guys look better when their collarbones are more prominent

Earlobe implants are where it’s at

It’s way sexier when one nostril is bigger than the other

Any ridiculous beauty standards will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

Sometimes we ask easy questions that we intend to be a cinch for everyone. Like what year ending in 29 that the Oscars were first awarded… and one team answered 1919.

When you don’t care about reality TV, you come up with fake names. Like Ultimate Banana, Sexy Time, and King Gopher: Munching Lettuce on the Down Low.

And in a week with lot’s of Taylor Swift content, we had a lot of teams get really annoyed… at themselves for not knowing as much as they thought.

And after 8 weeks of our quarterly tournament, there’s just one point in it.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 25 February 2024

So Taylor Swift has been in the news a lot.

There have been legitimate news stories about where she had dinner, her trip to the zoo, and virtually everything she did while in Australia.

For your team name this week, we want you to suggest the least likely place for a Taylor Swift sighting.

Hitchhiking across the Nullarbor

The Pokies at the Bankstown RSL

The queue for the toilets at a Taylor Swift concert

Let us know where Taylor definitely isn’t for a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We found out that one of our players counts on her fingers with all her fingers out, and then putting them down with each passing number.  Which is objectively weird.

You know that book Alison in Wonderland?

If you talk constantly and then complain that you can hear anything, we’re not going to take you seriously. If we ask you for a language beginning with J in which “thank you” translates as “arigato” and you leave it blank, our questions being too hard might not be the problem.

We noticed that one of our team had the same women every week, but different guys. It turns out the ladies were finding guys on Tinder and inviting them to trivia. So if you match with some 20 something girls in Sydney, you might wind up at one of our quizzes.

And after six weeks, somehow we have a tie in our quarterly tournament, with two teams tied on 5 wins and 368 points.
